Ohh For God's Sake. @ Doug so THIS is your measure of if a trainer is running a horse too frequently, if it gets vanned off the track or not???? Holy Eight Bells. So as long as the horse doesn't suffer a Catastophic injury or Death it's not running too much. Do you fight dogs as well? Realy, I mean what's the differece? They are bred for 1 reason, they are trained, when every last dime is wrung out of them, they are discarded. Tell me Ohhh Wise and compassionate one, just what in Christs name do think will be sound in wind and limb, in tendons, cartilage, bursas, stomach lining, good lord, brain, when this filly finaly crashes? What does this filly DO THEN? Huh? Who do you think will buy this filly when her trainer pounds her into the Ground??? WHERE DOES SHE GO THEN? Can she come live the rest of her life out with you? No? So now that she has given her all on the track is what waits for her a captive bolt to the brain?

Yes -- Lori -- this daughter of Tale of the Cat out of an A. P. Indy mare who made over 80K in her first five dirt races and has run multiple Beyer's in the 80's as a 3yo filly .... surely no one will want her. She is either going to come live with me in Erie or "get a captive bolt to the brain" ... the latter probably being the more humane option.
